Enriching the lives of our community’s students

About EESF

The Essex Elementary School Foundation is a non-profit organization, established in 1996, to supplement public education in our community by supporting the school’s strategic vision to engage all students in a rigorous and collaborative education program. We are committed to enriching the lives of our community’s students.

Our Mission

Essex Elementary School Foundation’s primary goal is to enhance student achievement through investments in innovative curriculum and rigorous academic programming that allow students to explore dynamic pathways of interest. Each year, we allocate at least 5% of the EESF endowment for new programming through grants to the school.
